Milton is like an English poet, political critic, bourgeois revolutionary activist and representative of revolutionary literature. Born in a wealthy Puritan family in London, he loved literature since childhood. He entered Cambridge University from 65438 to 0625, and began to write poems, including Song of Christmas Morning, Sisters' Happy People and Meditating People, Elegy Lycidas and so on. After the outbreak of the British revolution, he stood on the side of the revolutionary Puritans and published political papers such as On Freedom of the Press, Defending the British People and Defending the British People Again, which boosted morale. Because of overwork and blindness, he was once arrested and imprisoned after the restoration of the dynasty, and then concentrated on writing poetry. * * * Write three long poems: Paradise Lost, paradise regained and Samson. Among them, Paradise Lost is his masterpiece, which selects the story in the Bible that the devil Satan lured Adam and Eve to steal the forbidden fruit and was expelled from the paradise by God. In terms of artistic techniques, he inherited the tradition of classical epic in many aspects. His language is full of passion and political color, and he uses metaphors and changeable syntax to express his free and unrestrained thoughts and feelings. Especially Satan, who is full of rebellious spirit, has left a deep impression on people. Milton's creation marks the transition from traditional Renaissance style to classical style.
